Other Work of City Council The city hall wi (Hied with a hunch of npcctutorn Monday evening who ex pected to see something funny at the council meeting. The crowd waited throughout a long mission and left just as the luwnitikers hegan to warm up on that ever-hot heinome problem, the liquor question. However, there was no Hturiny scene, and adjournment was tnkcn with the Munition remaining-in HlatiM quo. It wan all over a motion on the part of Councilman (jelling that the coun cil vote to sustain the decision of the recorder's in revoking the liquor license of S. F. Fouls. Couiieilnien Mowers and 1'. S. Davidson were desirous that the city's laws should le enforced, hut could not see the necessity of the mo tion. Mayes wanted to know uliere nny harm could come In. l'ralher was anxious to avoid any lawsuit against the city, while II. F. Davidson sawed wood. The petition of Butler & Co., with voluntary subscriptions from citizens of Hood River for a road to the boat landing, was given a hearing, and upon motion of Councilman Blowers, the city agreed to appropriate $529 ( mm equal to the total subscriptions), or such portion of this amount as may be necessary to complete the work, lie fore a vote was taken, Councilman (iessling wanted to know if all trans portation companies would have equal privileges at the landing. A general discussion followed, in which Attorney .1. L. Henderson informed the council that dock privileges cannot I made exclusive, l'rovision Is made by law fix ing charges for docking. Prather fu voied the road but thought the city was giving too large a sum for one road. A vote being taken, the motion carried.

Davidson reported this could be done at an expense not to exceed 3 a month, and moved that the petition be granted, which the council agreed to. In the matter of the petition of John II. Gerdes for the opening of River street, committee on streets reported that legal advice was to the effect that the city could not he forced to ofien the street. Mr. Gerdes was granted the privilege of making a statement to the council and pleaded the justice of his cause. Councilman Prather, chairman of the health commit lee, reported that quarantine had been raised on all but two of the smallpox cases, and that the general health of the city was good. Attention was called to the existence of defective sewers and the custom of promiscuous dumping of garbage mat ter within the city. On motion of P. 8 Davidson, the street committee was re quested to secure a place for dumping garbnge. The matter of securing right of way prevented the sewer committee making a report, and, after the time-honored custom, the request for further time was granted. Reports of Marshal Cunning and Re corder Niekelsen were presented and accepted. Bills against the city were allowed, as follows: H. J. Byrkett, sidewalk 4 50 Murshnl's salary 50 00 W. II.

Ieslie Butler, of Butler & Co., the Hood Kiver blinkers, returned last week fioui San Francisco, where he attend ed -the national" convention of the American Bankers' association. While tlieie Mr. Butler lost no opportunity to tell about the good tilings of Hood River. He went s ipplied with sum pies of funey tipples, which wherever shown brought forth the mcst enthusi astic praises. "Send me four or live boxes o"f those apples," said one man. "I don't eare what they cot-t, i.s I must have some good apples." The evening of the reception at the Palace hotel, Mr. Butler presented Mrs. Whltsou, wife of the vice president of the New York City National bank, with a handsome Gloria Muudi.aSpitz eiiburg and a Yellow Newtown. Mrs. hi'soii showed them toe veryone.and was glad to tell that they came from lb., d River. ' I shall have them for a centerpiece at my llrst dinner after getting home," she proudly remarked to her fiiends. "The people of the United States ex- prvssed a deep in!ent Iti the Pari fie Nonliwei-I, uml p.itieii'urly the states of Oregon and Wa-liiiiKtoii," said Mr. Cutler when asked about his trip by a Glacier man. "If indications mean an tiling, there is most certainly a bright future for On gun. There were 2,000 uienihcrMftheieiciaticii present. Siu Francisco tteated us royally, and I ; must say I never hud a nicer lime in ' in.- li ft ' When tpuestioned as lo I he sentiment of the bankers oil the chances of haul times, Mr. Butler replied: 'There Is no danger of hard time. The present flurry iu the stock mar kets was expected, and will continue just so long as the people persist in be ing humbugged into taking shares in this or that wild cat scheme. When the people learn to look to the Ameri can Banker's association for recom mendations on all projected undertak ings, things will be different. "Times were never better. From all parts of the nation come reports of good crops and pleuty of money. There is ouly one thing that may lead to serious danger, and that is the agitation the walking delegates persist in stirring up among the working classes. This is the one element of danger, but someday the American people will rise up and suppress the dangerous agita tors, and we hone that day is not fur distant." Mr. Butler left Saturday morning for a trip to Chehalis and Seattle. To Build Sew Freight Depot. Railroad people give out the infor mation that the 0. R. & N. is soon to build a new freight' depot at Hood Riv er. The present depot Is to De remod eled and used exclusively for passen gers and the storage of baggage and ex press matter. The site for the .new freight depot w ill be near where the section house now stands, or probably at the foot of Irving street. This improvement will be greatly appreciated, as the present quarters of the railroad company are entirely too cramped, making it particularly un handy for the loading and unloading of freight cars. With a new bridge projected and a freight warehouse to erect, Hood River's building activity bids fair to continue for some time yet. Curiosities in Hen's Eggs. While stories of 5-pound potatoes ana p union in -sized apples are in vogue, Airs. ai. r. iscouee oi me r.ast side, comes forth with some hen's eggs which are noted not for large size, but on the contrary for their smullness. Mrs. Scohee left a dozen of them at the Glacier oliice, noue of which are larger than a pigeon's egg, while some look very much like peanuts, resembling the goober in size, shape an color. They were layed try a common lieu, but un like other hens which sometimes lav very small eggs, she was never known to produce anything even of ordinary size. MrScobee didn't believe in furn ishing feed for eccentric bens of I hit sort and sent the fowl to the chopping block, the curious eggs may be seen at the Glacier olllee. Pleasant to Take. The finest quality of granulated loaf sugar 's used in the manufacture of Chamberlain s Cough Remedy, and the roots used in its preparation give it a flavor similar to maple svrup, milking it quite pleasant to take. W. L. Roderick of Poolesville, Md., in speaking of this remedy says: "I have used Chamber lain's Cough Remedy v ith my children for several years and can truthfully eay it is the best preparation of the kind I know of. The children like to take it and it has no injurious aftereffect. For sale by all druggists. Only Makes a Bad Matter Worse. Perhaps you have never thought of it, but the fact must be apparent to everyone, that constipation is caused by a lack of water in the system, and the use of drastic cathartics like the old fashioned pills only makes a bad matter worse. Chamberlain s Stoniaeli and Liver Tablets are much more mild and gentle in their effect, and when the proper dose is taken their action la eo natural that one can hardly realize it it the effect of a medicine. Try a 25 cent bottle of them. For sale by all druggists. E. W. Winans informs the Glacier that with all the big potato stories this fall none equal a potato grown in Hood River several veara ago by Captain Coe, which weighed 8' pounds. INCENTIVE TO EFFORT. Ta. Ltuoa Lincoln's Life Teaches fa the Idle Barn. It is human nature to take it easy when we can, and with most people a big bank account will paralyze effort and destroy ambition. Who can tell what would have been the effect on our national history had Abraham Lin coln been born In luxury, surrounded with great libraries, free to the multi form advantages of schools, colleges and universities, the manifold oppor tunities for culture that wealth be stows? Who shall say whether the ab sence of all Incentive to effort might not have smothered such a genius? What wealthy, city bred youth of to day, glutted with opportunities for ac quiring knowledge, can feel that hun ger for books, that thirst for knowledge that spurred Lincoln to scour the wil derness for many miles to borrow the coveted "Life of Washington" which he had heard that some one In the Uelghbortiood owned? What young lawyer of our day goes to a law school or library with such a keen appetite, with such a yearning for legal knowledge, as this youth bad when he actually walked forty-four miles to borrow Blackstone's "Comraen tarles?" Where Is the student iu college or university today who experiences that satisfaction, that sense of conquest, which thrilled Lincoln while lying on the floor of bis log cabin working out arithmetical problems on a wooden shovel by the light of a wood fire or enthusiastically devouring the contents of a borrowed book, as if his eyes would never rest on Its pages again? On reading Lincoln's Gettysburg 8)eech and his secoud Inaugural ad dress foreign readers exclaimed. Whence got this man his style, seeing he knows nothing of literature?" Well might they exclaim, but their aston ishment would have been still greater hail they knowu that those eloquent utterances that thrilled the nation's heart had fallen from the lips of one who Iu his youth had access to but four books the Bible, 'Tllprlm'a Prog ress," Weeuis' "Life of Washington" and Bums' poems. Success. LAY UP YOUR TREASURES. Km Man SheaM Snen4 the Whole el Hla laeame. s any one too poor to save? Is an Im portant problem which the readers of a Ixmdon dally are at present attempt ing to siuve. ine question in ouc u any uip9ui a new one. It is one which has troubled past generations. Just as. In all protiabillty. It will affect the gen erations yet to come. We cannot say that this latest discussion of the tub- Ject is throwing mucn, if any, treso light upon it In the first place, there Is a diversity of opinion regarding the term "poor. One man, who derives an Income of $1,350 a year from private property, fancies he comes under the category, while another does not consider any one poor who has an income of foOO a year, says a writer in Leslie's Weekly. It Is manifestly impossible to fix any limit in a matter like this. Very much depends upon the locality and the con ditions and surroundings of the Indi vidual. An Income that would be amply sufficient to Insure a family a comfortable home, excellent social ad vantages and a good living In a coun try village would mean many priva tions and sore discomforts In any large city. On the whole, however, we are In clined to believe that Max O'Rell'a views on the point under discussion come nearer the safe and common sense rule than anything we have seen. "I do not care," he says, "how smull the Income of a man is, be should never spend the whole of It, especially If he has a wife and children. He should at least save enough to pay every year the premium on a good life policy. No man Is worthy of the name who docs not do this, at least, at the price of whatever privations he has to submit to. Some pleasure may be derived from high living, but certainly no hap piness." Whyf One f the wonderful things is that a woman of fair Intelligence will paint her cheeks like a clown's and appear on the streets. Why does she do It? Does she Imagine that people think the paint Is bloom of youth? Does she not know that people laugh at her? There are two things that people are quick to notice when a man wears a wig and when a woman paints her cheeks. Atchison Globe. The Oculist.

Los Angeles Herald. A BOY'S LOVE. Tk Symptom. That Hark HI. First ConectonmeM of Woman. "It Is deeply and touchlngly signifi cant of the uplifting Influence of wo man over man that the first heart throb of a boy Is always accompanied by ablutionary symptoms," says Doro thy Dlx in Alnslee's. "The earliest in dication that a masculine creatuw gives of susceptibility to the fair ses fc when he first voluntarily washes be alnd his ears. Up to that time his morning bath, except upon compulsion, has only described a small circle, tak ing In his eyes, a segment of his cheeks and his chin. A thorough scrubbing he has regarded as one of the tortures of the inquisition, combing his hair he has looked upon as a foolish waste of time that might have been spent on tops and marbles, while brushing his clothes and shoes has seemed a con temptible truckling to the effete cus toms of society that was unworthy of an intelligent human being. "Suddenly all this Is changed. Some morning the boy appears abnormally clean. He develops a mania for scent ed soap. His ears ore beyond re proach, and if he has the making of a lover In him he begins to manicure his nails. lie becomes critical about col lars and neckties. His family say, 'now Tommy is improving!' and hla mother congratulates herself that her lectures are bearing fruit at last. "In reality It Is the first premonition of love vague, Inarticulate, iutungible, but unmistakable. No man ever real izes his defects until he sees them re flected In feminine eyes. Men do not dress up for each other; but for wom an's opinion they would still be going about In comfort and the aboriginal blanket. The silk hat and dress coat are a daily offering on her shrine, and Tommy's newly awakened desire to fix up is simply his first consciousness of woman. He does not understand its portentousness, and he may still out wardly scorn little girls, but for him the die has been cast. The disturbing and compelling Influence of woman has entered into his life." POULTRY POINTERS. Early hatched pullets make the best winter layers. One of the most beneficial foods for poultry Is linseed meal. The laying bens like a variety not only In the soft food, but In the grain. The guinea fowl is a great forager and destroys many Insects that bens will not touch. The hens will lay better and be better contented If supplied with a box of fine dry earth for a dust bath. The Leghorns are popular with those who do not desire to raise chicks, they being nonsltter8 aud good layers. Foultry farming doesn't take a great deal of land, but with good manage ment the harvest comes every day. In arranging the perches in the poul try bouse have them far enough away from the doors aud windows to avoa drafts. Soaked lime placed in the drinking water will often cure hens of laying .heirless eggs unless It is a disease of the egg passage, as is sometimes the case. The Capitol aad the White Hoaae.
